They must be accustomed to wet roads up in Surrey, British Colombia. Even if they aren't experts in the rain at a minimum they're Canadian, so you'd expect local drivers to be courteous and friendly and generally very likable, even the Lamborghini-driving ones. All my expectations for our northern friends are blown… »12/22/14 2:26pm 12/22/14 2:26pm

For a good 10 years, the Dodge Viper ACR was the hardest, nastiest, trackiest Viper you could track. Lighter, stiffer, and more stripped out than a normal Viper, it was a true beast. But the current-gen Viper has yet to get an American Club Racing variant — until now.»10/24/14 11:51am 10/24/14 11:51am

In his postmodern novel The French Lieutenant's Woman, John Fowles tells us that the heroine, Sarah Woodruff, was "the perfect victim of a caste society. Her father had forced her out of her own class but could not raise her to the next. To the men of the one she had left, she had become too select to marry; to those…»10/23/14 4:07pm 10/23/14 4:07pm

The Dodge Viper returned to the world in 2013 and everyone... kind of went, huh. That's a bit of a surprise considering the styling is excellent, the V10 makes amazing noise, and the performance capability of the car is higher than that of most drivers that will climb behind the wheel.»10/21/14 2:15pm 10/21/14 2:15pm

The great Carroll Shelby used a very simple formula to make the Cobra one of the fastest roadsters of its day...take a big engine, cram it into a small car. The Honda S2000 is one of the best handling cars to come from Japan, so I'm not sure how a Viper V10 improves the balance, but I like it. »9/18/14 2:32pm 9/18/14 2:32pm

[As driver Tommy Kendallnotes, IMSA's got no rules about spinning the tires in the pits, leading to the smokiest of burnouts at the Sahlen's Watkins Glen Six Hours. The Vipers are goddamn gorgeous.] »6/29/14 4:54pm 6/29/14 4:54pm

The SRT Dodge Viper hasn't been doing so well recently, despite its nearly complete ground-up redesign. It's fast, brash, light, and raw, and is seemingly what everyone on Jalopnik wants: a supercar with a manual gearbox and the minimum number of nannies required by US law. The Porsche 991 Turbo S is the exact… »5/23/14 11:39am 5/23/14 11:39am

Not to be outdone by any two-bit Corvette that Chevy happens to dump on the world this weekend, the Viper is striking back. With a new paint color! Okay, so it's not as big a bump as the Z06, but holy hell, just look at it. It's green. Very, very green. »1/12/14 11:17am 1/12/14 11:17am

I recently decided that if by some miracle I was able to afford a new car in the $100-150k price range, I'd have to choose the SRT Viper. In all likelihood, I'll probably never drive one, much less come close to having the opportunity to own one. But that won't stop me from dreaming, so excuse me while I prattle on. »11/05/13 3:30pm 11/05/13 3:30pm

This 1996 Viper GTS is being sold as a salvage project/donor car, but I say keep it as-is and enjoy. Who in their right mind wouldn't want a 450hp V10 go-kart? And with a mere $13k asking price, its almost crazy NOT to buy it. »10/28/13 7:54am 10/28/13 7:54am

The SRT Viper has recently gotten some flack for not being so much a track beast, as it is a beast in general. I don't care, because it's still a laugh of a car and that's why I imagine one buys it. And hey, it sure looks good, too. »8/24/13 5:00pm 8/24/13 5:00pm
